But this man isn’t United Methodist. Had he said, “DFW,” I am fairly sure I wouldn’t have thought twice before saying, “yes.” But he didn’t, so it took me a second to gauge the context. I then answered, “yes.”

Both answers “yes” and “no” were truthful answers depending on the context. If I had been asked “Are you in the Dallas area?” by a United Methodist who was, with that question, asking what conference I was part of, answering “yes” would have been misleading.

Are there questions to which you could answer either “yes” or “no truthfully?
